Supporting resilience and quality of life for LGBTQ+ adults age 50 and beyond, the Journey Continues is a diverse, gender inclusive and affirming 16 week group process. The purpose of the group is to explore the aging process specific to LGBTQ+ individuals, to build community in a safe and empowering environment and to support resilience and quality of life in the aging process. The group is phenomenological, or client-centered by design, and shaped by the participants of each group.
